Swordmastery FAQ
When can I use Swordmastery skills?
Swordmastery abilities are usable during Day & Night. Coen's human-form powers belong to the day and his vampiric powers to the night; sword techniques work in both.
How do I unlock Swordmastery skills?
Find manuals dropped by soldiers and bandits across Vale Sangora, or buy them from fencers, then spend skill points on the technique.
What is the Swordmastery Ultimate Perk?
The Swordmastery tree culminates in Last Stand. Unlocking any tree's Ultimate Perk also earns a trophy.
